9 Chapter 6 Fish King_2

"Then, it suddenly plunged into the sea, driving back a turtle-snake-like demon beast, it was utterly astonishing!"

The old man's face was full of admiration. Chen Yi also showed a fitting "Wow, that's impressive" expression,

But in his heart, he thought, lifting a thousand pounds with both hands, doesn't seem too difficult...

I have just managed to grasp Vitality and Blood and already have the strength of a hundred pounds. I've heard that masters of Mingjin and Anjin have even more powerful Vitality and Blood,

So if the first layer of body cultivation only has a power of a thousand pounds, maybe I am already at the level of Anjin?

The decoction that was used for martial arts training in the original world only costs a couple of silver coins. Compared to this world where a large amount of spirit stones are needed, it was simply too cheap.

"Old man, what is this Fish King you speak of, could you tell me more about it?"

"The Fish King, ah, is actually the Red-Blooded Carp King. It's a quasi demon beast, which is rare and extremely fast in the Great Swamp. Its meat is very tender and is a great supplement for the body. It is highly sought after by cultivators, especially body cultivators.

Even some Qi Refining Great Cultivators, if they crave for it, they would be willing to buy one to satisfy their cravings.

If someone manages to catch a Fish King, it can be sold for a fortune, basically guaranteeing wealth and prosperity, no need to fish for the rest of their lives."

A quasi-demon beast, worth a fortune? Good for body strength? Useful for body cultivators, can satisfy the cravings of a Qi Refining Cultivator?

Chen Yi quickly noted down a few key pieces of information while analyzing the state of this world,

With Qi Refining Cultivators and Body Cultivators, the high-level energy in the air should be the sparse spiritual energy!

"But old man, if there is only one Red-Blooded Carp King, then there won't be enough for everyone to catch, right?" Chen Yi asked again.

"Heh, as if they could catch the Fish King.

In this Endless Spirit Fog Marsh, apart from the Red-Blooded Carp King, there are also at least eighty others of its level,

But those Fish Kings usually hide deep under the water, no one knows when they will surface, and they are extremely fast, not something ordinary people can catch,

Unless they can find a bait to lure the Fish King, but that recipe has long been lost.

Therefore, their goal is the Red-Blooded Black Carp following the Fish King. The Red-Blooded Black Carp also has a trace of the Fish King's bloodline. It will greatly supplement a martial artist's strength too, and one of these is worth tens of silver coins."

Chen Yi nodded slightly, so that's how it is. To avoid exposing too much, he didn't ask further,

After all, it's just about the Martial Arts System and the Immortal Cultivation System. When his strength increases, he can find out more by visiting the market onshore.

Yes, he should focus on steadily improving his martial arts skills and raising his strength.

Without saying more, the two of them finished their fish soup. Suddenly, a roar of cheers and the sound of gongs and drums came from the distance, it seems that someone caught a Fish King or something similar.

But Chen Yi was not interested in all that,

After declining the old man's invitation to try the hook rack, he rowed his boat on his own, continued to drift on the Great Swamp, practiced standing stake, increased his Vitality and Blood, cultivated.

....

Five days later, Chen Yi's internal Vitality and Blood had substantially increased. Early this day, he arrived at the martial arts school and, while no one was around, he secretly tried his strength at the measuring station.

His single arm could lift a 200-pound weight, which already meets the requirement of a Mingjin martial artist who has just begun. Despite this, he has not yet actually entered this realm.

Having confirmed his capabilities, during morning pile skill,

Chen Yi showed that he could perform the standing stake for a half of two hours, reaching the level of Wang Xiaohu's school's training.

To have reached this level in a month shows a very good martial arts talent.

After the pile skill ended, Yunhu found Chen Yi:

"Junior Brother Chen, your one-month martial arts training period has ended, are you going to pay to continue your training here?"

Chen Yi shook his head, "Elder Brother Yunhu, to be frank, my family rely on fishing to make a living, the two silver coins a month training fee is really too much, Since I have already learned this pile skill, I think I will just practice on my own."

Yunhu nodded, "It's a pity to waste your talent, being able to reach half of two hours' standard within a month means you're likely to master Vitality and Blood within three months. If you could drink a few decoctions to supplement your body, you can even be faster.

You're actually not worse than some formal disciples.

But now that you have learned this pile skill, it is also good to go back and practice on your own. Just remember to practice diligently,

If you can master Vitality and Blood within six months, you can come back to the martial arts school and learn how to throw punches."

"I will keep that in mind, thank you Elder Brother Yunhu."

As Chen Yi was about to leave, Wang Xiaohu stopped him:

"Junior Brother Chen, your talent is probably not inferior to mine, it would be a pity to give up so easily. Why don't you come to my house and become a bodyguard? I will pay you a fixed monthly salary of two silver coins, enough for you to buy decoctions. Perhaps you might even be able to master Vitality and Blood. Then we can continue to learn how to punch here. What do you think?"

Chen Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head,"I appreciate your kindness, Elder Brother Xiaohu. But I only practice martial arts for the sake of protecting my health, I really don't have the courage to do violent jobs like being a bodyguard, I'm really sorry."

Having said that, he walked towards the exit of the martial arts school.

"Ah, Junior Brother Chen, if the fixed money is not enough, we can negotiate! If you follow me, I can ensure you master Vitality and Blood and become a real martial artist! Hey, Junior Brother Chen, don't leave?!"

Wang Xiaohu yelled a few times, but unable to stop the person from leaving, he shook his head and sighed.

Chen Yi is going to another world to practice standing stake, martial arts, fishing and improve his body, how could he possibly become someone else's bodyguard?.

This scene, however, gave hope to several other youngsters:

"Chen Yi has such a good talent for practicing martial arts, but sadly he is a coward, haha!"

"Yeah, he doesn't even dare to be a bodyguard, rejecting a monthly pay of two silver coins, he is destined to be a poor fisherman!"

"Elder Brother Xiaohu, look at me, I've practiced standing stake for two months, and can also stand for more than fifteen minutes. Within half a year, I will definitely be able to stand for half of two hours. Please save me a position as a bodyguard in your house, even if it's for one silver coin a month, I'll do it!"

Wang Xiaohu glanced at the speaker and shook his head without responding. Chen Yi managed to stand for half of two hours in just one month without taking any decoction, and you have been practicing for two months and can only stand for fifteen minutes, how do you have the audacity to demand one silver coin from our house?

...

After leaving the martial arts school, Chen Yi helped his family fish fishing and sell fish. When he had the time, he would also go to the Spiritual Energy World to practice standing stake and increase his Vitality and Blood.

As his strength gradually increased, Chen Yi dared to catch some three to four-pound fish in this world and sell them,

Little by little, his family's livelihood became better and better.

This day, there was a commotion at the Pier Fish Market,

Only to see a high-spirited Liu, the leper, leading two people, they have captured Hu Ye, tied him up and made him kneel in front of the steward!

"You tricky Hu Ye, I really thought you were a fair person who wouldn't accept bribes and stuck to the rules. You actually secretly collaborated with the fishermen to buy large fish and sell them in the county restaurants!

Now you are caught red-handed, I wonder how you are going to justify yourself!"
